WeThinkCode_ is open to anyone between the age of 17 and 35. You don’t need any previous education, not even matric is required. You need to able to attend our campus in Johannesburg and be eligible to study and/or work in South Africa.

Where is the campus?

The campus is in the Johannesburg CBD. Due to the structure and intensity of the course, you will be required to come to campus everyday.

There is no on-campus living.

Can I do the course part-time?

No.

The peer-to-peer structure of the learning, the breadth of the curriculum and the volume of work required to complete the course successfully means you need to be physically present at the campus at the very least for 8-10 hours a day, 6 days a week – and probably a little more.

How do I know that I am #BornToCode?

Regardless of your previous education, where you grew up, what you know or what you have done, you could be #BornToCode! There is one way to find out, sign up now and play our application games to see if you have what it takes.

The Bootcamp is 4 weeks of intense problem solving and is the last step in your application process.

You will have to come to campus every single day during the Bootcamp (including weekends!), and work for at least 10 hours a day.

You will have to work with your fellow students to solve problems through computer programming.

The top applicants who successfully make it through the 4-week selection Bootcamp, will be invited to attend WeThinkCode_ full time.

The Bootcamp is hard work, really tough, but so much fun.

How will I know if I’ve been selected for the Bootcamp?

Applicants who have successfully completed the online application with high enough scores in the tests will receive an email a few weeks later, inviting you to schedule a check-in meeting in Johannesburg with the WeThinkCode_ team.

When do the selection Bootcamps take place, and when does the course start?

There are three 4-week intense selection Bootcamps in January, February and March 2016.

If you pass the aptitude test, you will be asked to choose which Bootcamp you wish to attend.

Successful candidates from the Bootcamps will start the course full time in May 2016.

How long will the applications be open?

There are three deadlines to submit your application; apply for the January Bootcamp by 30 November 2015, the February Bootcamp by 30 December 2015 and the March Bootcamp by 31 January 2016.

How long is the course?

Students are expected to complete the course in approximately 2 years.

The work is project based, and it is estimated that most candidates will earn their first 4 month internship after 8 months of full time course work.

This internship will be followed by a further 8 months (approximately) of course work, in order to qualify for the second and final 4 month internship.

How much does it cost?

The course is 100% free for WeThinkCode_ students. Corporate sponsors pay your tuition, and in exchange you will complete two (paid) 4 month internships with them during the course of your studies. Upon successful completion of the course, you will be required to work back the value of your sponsorship (typically 1-2 years) with your sponsor.

How many students will be accepted?

100 students will be accepted into the first class of 2016.

Is there any further financial assistance available?

Qualifying students will receive a stipend to cover transport and food until their first paid internship (approximately 8 months into the course).

Students are expected to save up whereafter they will be fully responsible for themselves for the duration of the course.

Do I need to be a South Africa citizen to attend the course?

With that said, if you are not a valid South African citizen, the onus is on you to prove that you have the required visas and legal permissions to live, work and study in South Africa for the duration of the course and your subsequent work obligations.
